my friend hiroko used to be an art dealer in tokyo and so she knows some people that were gonna be at this "2008 Beijing Contemporary Art Fair". this was a VIP preview so it was pretty cool. here is the red carpet
this video had people slaughtering a pig. it was pretty gruesome. whatever emotions and reactions the maker wanted to get out of people he suceeded. it was pretty brutal watching 8 guys holding down a huge pig and then stabbing it in the throat with a knife and blood squirting out all over them and watching it die. by the time i got my camera out it changed scenes.
this photographer Chen Man is pretty awesome. she is in her early 20's and her stuff is everywhere in china, very successful. i was sad to see only 3 photos at her booth.
this is hiroko talking with japanese art world people
i like this piece.
gross
